Screwing Off, Part Deux
January 1, 2008Happy 2008! I hope the new year brings you all you wish it to bring!
I stayed up until 12:03 last night, party on! Then, I passed out cold from fatigue as I started the morning with Gina the 60-pound alarm clock on my chest at 5 am again.
I took Magical Samantha down to the Old Sacramento (the historic original “downtown” post gold-rush 1850s Sacramento) area yesterday where we checked out the old one room schoolhouse and she got to play schoolmarm—if it hadn’t been a public place, that little game might have gone a little differently.
And, we checked out the Wells Fargo museum and ATM. Seriously, there is all this historical stuff—old telegraphs, saddle bags from the Pony Express riders, gold ingots from the gold rush, lots of stuff to read and look at and an sitting right in the middle of it all sits a single ATM machine.
They have a new hat shop in Old Sacramento which really excited me – Magical S. tried a lot of those on as I snapped away. I was thinking about a fedora – and found one I loved, but maybe next time.
Uncle Doreen joined Notorious B.E.N., who flew in yesterday afternoon, Magical Samantha and I as we played some epically bad games of pool and laughed our arses off over some pretty juvenile stuff (like acorn squash breast enhancements —Notorious B.E.N. walked out into the kitchen and took one look at me and ran away). This was sober. As always, Ben was happy to get his requisite hugs and kisses from mama.
I have to go back to work tomorrow. And, I didn’t get a damned thing done while I was on vacation.
